It's a bit silly to compare Obama's thoughts on the EU to a hypothetical situation in which Cameron endorses a racist presidential candidate that would set the most powerful country in the world back 60 years.
I've not seen any good reasons to leave the EU, most of the arguments for an exit seem rather short sighted and reactionary to me. Last edited by Tom4784; 14-03-2016 at 12:18 PM. |

He is not however the only leader of a Country to say his views as to the UK staying in or out.
I am sure his visit here is not purely for that purpose too. He is not likely to make up anyone's minds or change the minds of those already made up,I see no problem with him saying what he thinks as to our future, in or out of the EU,we do also claim to have a 'special relationship' with the USA anyway. Usually we at least listen to anyone we supposedly have a special relationship with, whether we take any notice is another matter. |

If Obama believes it's best for us to be in the EU, then why don't the US join the Union too?
Why don't the US have there laws made elsewhere? Why don't the US have a free movement for every member of a Union? If you don't practice it, then don't preach it. What an insult to the British people by the US saying we couldn't prosper without it. |

As said many times before he is only one of many voices from other Countries around the World expressing a view as to the UK in the EU.
He is bound to have an interest in the continent of Europe showing coming together rather than splitting up in any way. One of many voices is his on this issue from the USA to India and even including China and oddly enough all are saying the same, they would prefer to see the UK remain in the EU.

If he was coming to say we should leave I would be pretty sure that Chris Grayling, Boris Johnson,Michael Gove and the others would be hailing from the rooftops that the UKs closest ally even wanted us to leave.
To me the reaction to whatever he may say is a massive overreaction. I doubt much of what he says will have much, if any even, impact on how people will really vote come June 23rd. Still it mus be infuriating for the out organisation that not a single Nation that is seen as an ally or friend of the UK advocates the UK leaving the EU. |

It's amazing what you can sell to the masses if you label it "free trade". Time we stopped being so bloody apathetic and woke up to the real goings on behind the EU deals on trade. Of course this is a better deal for America with their already giant international companies. TTIP is about America bypassing our irritating local regulations; its about creating a power vacuum which America will control and its about handing Europe over to the worst abuse from giant corporate power....When it comes to TTIP America is our enemy. Lets not miss out on doing something about this > http://www.globalresearch.ca/mass-eu...st-law/5486736

I understand several EU nations can hold referenda on the issue but I may have understood that wrong but then it will still have to be then ratified by all Nations in the EU anyway. If all the problems/worries/concerns cannot be erased as to the objections being raised to same then it is unlikely all EU nations will in fact end up ratifying it,which will in effect be needed to enact it anyway. If we were top leave the EU, then we would have no say and not vote in it at all being agreed or not,yet it may be possible unless,the out organisation can solidly prove otherwise, that we may have to accept it,whether it ends up being a good or bad thing, even if out.

Voting to remain in the EU is giving consent to the TTIP without any democratic scrutiny whatsoever. Voting for Brexit will at least ensure the TTIP undergoes democratic scrutiny through both Houses.

This may well have to be put to the voters again if it is deemed new substantial change. It is not even sure to be made of the EU set up and if as you say, other Nations are complaining then it is unlikely to get the consent of the other EU nations of who, all 27 if we leave or 28 if we say will have to agree to. Are you that sure we will have that much scrutiny with being out, if this is deemed an issue from the EU that needs to be put to the voters before our govt can agree to ratify it,how will being out help. There will be no need if out of the EU, for our govt to then ask the voters their opinion on it. 'If' it is ever accepted as part of the EU system and in the unlikely event then even gets the ratification of all the nations of the EU, how if we were out may we not be affected by it for certain. Do you really believe,particularly with this present govt and indeed even Tony Blair's Labour one, that the voters feel we have influence there that much. I certainly don't, just my thinking but this govt particularly rarely listens to anyone. I would myself rather take the chance with this having to come to the voters in the UK again IF, and I stress if, the EU comes to any firm agreement on it for it to be put to all the nations of the EU,which would mean it would likely come to the voters of the UK in a referendum. Outside the EU,then Westminster, if it was possible to be part of this, no way would the UK govt then ask the voters of the UK anything about it,there would be no need to. If there are so many issues as to it now, it may never even become part of anything as to the EU in the end despite the lengthy negotiations anyway. If they cannot get things better as to it. |
